About Lee Bertrand

Lee is a freelance photographer and elementary school art teacher based out of San Diego, CA. He moved to California in 2011 with 10 years experience as an ocean lifeguard and junior lifeguard instructor. He continued his work in drowning prevention by working as a full-time swim instructor until ultimately taking his part-time photography business to a full-time career in 2015. In 2021, Lee started teaching Art at Curie Elementary School in addition to his photography.

With a love for art and nature, Lee's fine art photography is primarily inspired by the raw power and beauty of water and everything that comes along with it. Lee is incredibly passionate about capturing the ocean in all its glory, along with other amazing geological formations that were created by the energy of water. Lee loves bringing his images to life by creating large format prints with vivid and bold colors and hanging them on his clients walls.
